Summary: You Must Pay For Access to the Company Register Information

On 14 August 2013, Access Info and our partner Iurie Sanduta submitted the initial request for access to the full database of companies to the State Chamber of Registration of Moldova. In Moldova, the deadline for responding to access to information requests is of 15 working days.

The response arrived 8 days later, on 22 August, and it explained that the information requested was already available online and could therefore be consulted on the website. The letter added that having this information online makes it easier to eliminate ‘bureaucratic barriers, double circulation of documents, as well as reducing entrepreneurs costs’, but it also made clear that you have to pay to access the information. The State Chamber of Registration sent us the price list for information as an annex to their official response to our request.

Access Info Europe decided not to pursue this request with an administrative appeal.
